Bridge/Outro: 

Bb                        Gm
Don't you want me to wake up?
Then give me just a bit of your time
Arguments are made from make outs
So give it just a little more time
Bb                        Gm
We've got to bring our results
I wanna play it 'til the time comes
But there's a string of divorces
You go and throw your little hands up
Bb                        Gm
I miss the way the night comes
With friends who always make it feel good
This basement has a cold glow
Though it's better than a bunch of others
Bb                        Gm
So go and dance yourself clean
Go and dance yourself clean
You're throwing marks into pieces
Baby, they're arguments, the pieces
Bb             Gm
It's your show
It's your show
It's your show
It's your show
Work a little bit
Bb                        Gm
Every night's a different story
It's a thirty car pile-up with you
Everybody's getting younger
It's the end of an era, it's true
And you go
Stop, stop, stop, stop
Bb                        Gm
Make me into bigger pieces
It's as though he's home with you
Wait until the weekend
And we can make our dreams come true
And it's a-go, Yeah, it's a-go
And if we wait until the weekend
We can miss the best thing to do
Bb                         Gm
Go and dance yourself clean
Go and dance yourself clean
You're throwing marks into pieces
Maybe they're arguments, the pieces, Oh!
Bb                          Gm
We should try a little harder
In the tedious march of the few
Every day's a different warning
There's a part of me hoping it's true
